Hint: Tim Robbins is in it.
Is it … Jacob’s Ladder?
And then it turns out to be The Shawshank Redemption. No, it can’t be. I practically know all the lines to that movie thanks to TBS/TNT.
Ok here is one I have to use different names otherwise it’s too simple.
First Person “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Meaning (Second)?”
Second Person "None that I’m conscious of. Except of course; happy birthday! -Surely the best of times. "
I have a feeling this is going to be answered in a heart beat though. I know one person that if they don’t get it i will be shocked.
Star Trek Wrath of Khan
Kirk/Spock conversation.
Sorry Talos!!! You snooze ya lose!
" We know now that we can’t beat their machines. We’ve got to beat them. "
War of the Worlds
It’s his chiropractor Louis (Danny Aiello).
Here’s one:
“I hope everything on Earth is all you remember it to be.”
That sounds like it could be from that godawfulpeiceofcrapwhydotheygivethatmanmoney remake of ‘Planet of the Apes’, that doesn’t mean I am right… But it fits. Though I have probably blacked most of that movie out to save my sanity, the memories are just too painful.
Hah! I just got done (literally) watching the movie! It is from ‘Moon’, it is the computer(Gerty) saying goodbye to Sam at the end.
So I guess I get to go again-
“It calls back a time when there were flowers all over the Earth… and there were valleys. And there were plains of tall green grass that you could lie down in – you could go to sleep in. And there were blue skies, and there was fresh air… and there were things growing all over the place, not just in some domed enclosures blasted some millions of miles out in to space.”
I’m thinking ‘Logan’s Run’, but I don’t remember that quote specifically.
Logan’s Run came out 5 years after this movie, so you are in the right time frame cinema-wise.
Silent Running?
Pike Got it! A ecology themed SF movie, long before they became envogue.
“Can I bring you back anything from Amsterdam?”
“A diamond?”
“Would you settle for a tulip?”
In Bruges?
Diamonds are Forever? Hostel?
I’ve been watching all the James Bond films, recently. Except in ‘Diamonds are Forever’ Bond says, Holland. Not sure, Pike might be referencing something else.
The first one.
I think he might be having flashbacks to his college days, touring Amsterdam’s fine cultural centers.
“He pushed me in the real world. When someone pushes me, I push back, so I brought him down here.”
I was going to use the feminine hygeine quote, but I went for this one instead.
I would have had that one. the dome reference gives it away.
Are there any currently on?
Well, here’s another “palate cleanser” from me anyway…
“Look at the size of that whammer!”
EDIT:
Tron.
